Opinion

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas December 9, 2019

No. 04-19-00321-CR

Edward ROCHA, Appellant

v.

The STATE of Texas, Appellee

From the 187th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2017CR8265 Honorable Stephanie R. Boyd, Judge Presiding

ORDER Appellant’s second motion for an extension of time to file the appellant’s briefs is granted. We order appellant’s counsel, Donald B. Edwards, to file the appellant’s brief by December 18. Counsel is advised that no further extensions of time will be granted absent a timely motion that (1) demonstrates extraordinary circumstances justifying further delay, (2) advises the court of the efforts counsel has expended in preparing the brief, and (3) provides the court reasonable assurance that the brief will be completed and filed by the requested extended deadline. The court does not generally consider a heavy work schedule to be an extraordinary circumstance.
